  • Number of Franchises / Outlets:
    Experts advise not to worry much about how many franchise units the franchise has. It is more important to focus on what the franchise growth plan is, what their management team is like, what their infrastructure is, and most importantly, what their system is. Do they have a \\\\\\\'system\\\\\\\'? (A \\\\\\\'system\\\\\\\' is a methodology of how to operate their business.) When you buy a franchise, you\\\\\\\'re buying a system.
